The Mary Rose sank off Portsmouth in 1545 where it remained for nearly 450 years.
When it was raised in 1982, a basket hilted sword was found under the hull, the earliest dating of such a weapon.
Remarkably it was still intact after all those years under the seabed.
Letter openers are supplied in an attractive gift box.
